Default Green Tea Eye for the Lapsang Souchong Guy

Okay.

As you probably all know I am one of many resident Lapsang Souchong
devotees here on r.f.d.t. My girlfriend is fond of green teas
(particularly Gen Mai Cha) but I have been turned off to green teas
because I find many of them to be grassy. I do drink Touareg style tea,
but I won't touch gunpowder unless it has mint in it. We both love
Dragon Well, but it starts to become a drain on the pocket book
afterwhile. I am beginning to get into oolongs, especially Guan Yins.
Any suggestions?


Jasmine Pearls? one of my personal favorite green teas. I am no fan of
gunpowder or genmaicha. I drink primarily Sencha, but that is grassy
and vegetal. A high quality jasmine green is a nice tea, and the
higher-end jasmine pearls are my #1.
